I live in the biggest state in 'Merica! The constant state of disappointment.

So we meet again, prognosticator. You broke the Sword of Mana's suspension of disbelief so badly I had to look up your meaning before advancing the text. And look who has two thumbs and remembers your meaning almost a decade later. That's right, it's me.

Weird dream note that no one asked for. Multiple, even several, clear colorful rulers of varying sizes are fanned out in front of me. I ask why I have so many. Along with many screens on the wall (like the image below). Again, I ask why there are so many. Riveting stuff, my friends. Riveting stuff.

I made the smaller paper version of the poe lamp, but then I thought, "you know what? I CAN add as much detail as the large one.". So I will. Pen for scale.

No worries, neither am I. I enabled the "desktop site" button in Chrome's three dot dropdown corner thing. With that I can see most of the page (on an android operating system). That's a very intricate web page.

The image in your link looks off centered. I opened it in the Chrome mobile browser.

Blumenthal has been working on that apparently. The graphs show the number of people who enrolled in NY's Long-term healthcare program. Funding and staff have been messed with by a dubious meme department. Some people are finally getting comprehensive care. Colligan seems healthy, very photogenic.

There's a Japanese word "yūgen" and the Dutch "jougen"(pronounced like youngen). My brain defaulted to the English "young". Until I remembered what country I'm currently in.

Guess who forgot that some non-ferrous metals need flux to solder? I'm just gonna check the mirror and get back to this later. I might just crimp them together. That was the plan before I told myself, "YoU hAvE tHe CoRrEcT sOLdEr FoR aLuMiNuM.".

Welp, maybe too prepared. As it turns out the tin has a 2027-2028 expiration date. One glass jar is lost to time.

The small prototype lamp still works. But can I make it smaller and dare I try to solder some scrap metal after the wave of too much caffeine passes? Spoiler alert: I does dare. I found the solder element thing yesterday. With Tiger Balm and cold water ready in case I burn myself in the process.

After some cleaning and other people moving the clean stuff around. This happened. The peach puff is trying to nonchalantly check on what the hardhat puff is looking at. #Winnonapeachfest.Can1992 (if I leave it as Ca. People think it's California.) Do tags work here? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My very first wooden comb. You see how some of the teeth are bigger than the others? That's because I wasn't exactly sure of what I was doing with a 50 year old jig saw.

Everyone, enjoy woodpeckers eating aphids off of some overgrown multiflora rose. It's invasive, but right now, it's a lunch rush.

I am not sure where this spoon came from. All I know is that I can use an adorable silver plated spoon. This is the closest I'll get to living fancy.

Here's a breakfast item that was better than expected. One of those Wasa crackers topped with stewed nectarines, dried figs, some maple syrup, and ginger mixture.

Week's leftover breakfast salad. Some fruit bits for later that now live in the fridge. And the foodscrap pike for the bucket outside. A vinegrette because I feel I'm worth it.

If it'a warm enough for us, it's warm enough for them. Bought a plant and forgot I'd be winter storm moving later, so now it's in a warmed spare, quilted hoodie. And one last thing, slushy boots 'n' shoes go in the sink or shower. Even nasty flooring can sprout mold in the subfloor cushion layer.
SnugI wanted to make a drop the beet joke, but those be boots. I need to eat more salt, the dude bros call them electrolytes. Check serving sizes. Check yourself (moisture is a slow heat sink(haaa pun and double bracets)), wear layers, and be safe out there.

Any wildlifeologists and or bird-know-abouters out there? Check out my peanutbutter pinecones. They might be a bit extra (I added some frozen dried berries and walnuts to one and some uncooked rice to the other), but I think the birds would like some options. And some airpopped popcorn I didn't eat.

I've noticed you guys are having a lot of fun with the usernames lately. Honestly, it's pretty entertaining. Here's my a half of the trade: a pun stuck to a table under a keyboard!

When ever I make a small donation to a cause this is the image that springs to mind. Classic meme. Never knew a kitten could display guilt when it shouldn't feel guilty. That applies to kids too. I had an awesome grandma so I'm just saying she taught me something I didn't realize until later in life

I didn't have enough small containers for my remaining mushrooms, but I did have an orange peel! Now the fridge won't dry them out. This worked with outter cabbage leaves. It just occured to me to try an orange peel. Highly reccomend trying tangerines. Easy peasy peeling. #orignalreuseablefoodwraps

I'm started sprouts from seed. I had no pots but I did have paper egg cartins and toilet roll tubes. Cut those tubes in half, make 4 verticle cuts on the bottom, then box fold one end shut. Fill with dirt and plant away!
